Floyd Mayweather vs Marcos Maidana Betting Tips PT 1

It looks like another fascinating boxing encounter happening on Saturday as undefeated Floyrd “Money” Mayweather takes on Marcos Maidana for the second time in what promises to be a genuine thriller. The trash-talking American boxer takes on the Argentinian contender in a match that many seem to think will be the final leg of Floyd’s undefeated career as he was pushed all the way last time by this determined opponent.

The bookmakers have been taking relatively heavy volume on Maidana the entire week and many have actually shortened his odds considerably during the past few hours during the build up to the fight. 

The UK and European-based bookmakers have not seen that level of volume that the Americans have seen in Las Vegas and there are plenty of books offering up extremely slim prices on Mayweather again this time around. It will be very interesting to see how the early rounds unfold as this will heavily influence the live wagering on the fight - something many believe will be the key to profit generation for punters looking to back the seemingly invulnerable Mayweather. 

As it currently stands, the punters are looking at a very short price of around 1/8 on Floyd Mayweather while his Argentinian counterpart is trading at a price of around 5/1 right now - a price that will likely rise in-play if Mayweather opens up well and looks good in the earlier rounds of the fight. 

The over/under on rounds is set at 9.5 with over paying out at an ultra slim 2/9 price tag while the under 9.5 rounds - effectively betting on Mayweather to pull off a rare k/o of an opponent is a lengthy 3/1. There is a slim chance that Maidana is able to get a good punch in at the opportune time but the fact remains that nobody has really pushed Mayweather particularly far and the judges will be on his side as well.
